Background To assess the performance of transcranial Doppler (TCD) in predicting
neurologic worsening after mild to moderate traumatic brain injury. Methods The authors …

The investigation of brain tumors involves analyzing the type, location, circumscribed vs
invasive, extent of edema, and malignancy. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a useful tool that …

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is increasingly utilized in patients with lifethreatening neurologic
injury and has several practical applications in neurocritical care. It holds promise for the …

In this chapter, we will discuss the utility of transcranial Doppler to assess cerebral
hemodynamics and how to apply it to understand the cerebral blood flow changes in acute …

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a practical examination of particular utility in critically ill
patients. In addition to being able to be performed at the bedside, it can be repeated, is …

Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is common during sepsis and is associated with
poor outcome and long-term cognitive sequelae. Altered cerebral autoregulation (CA) may …

TCD is a non-invasive monitor that calculates red cell flow velocity (FV) from the shift in
frequency spectra of the Doppler signal. This provides indirect information about CBF, which …

Objective Targeting single monitoring modalities such as intracranial pressure (ICP) or
cerebral perfusion pressure alone has shown to be insufficient in improving outcome after …

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) and transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TCCS) are
valuable real-time neurologic monitoring tools in the ICU. Pulsatility index (PI) is one of the …

Besides intensive care applications, transcranial Doppler (TCD) is also useful in the
neurosurgical operating room setting. Surgeries where it may be more useful would be:(1) …
